Terrific sub compact SUV

The Limited edition has every convenience you’d expect. It’s well designed and executed.

No automatic or remote trunk opener

Wished I would’ve caught that before I bought it. There is no button inside the car to push so that the trunk will open, or on the key fob. When I asked the salesman about it, he didn’t know how to open it either other than manually going to the truck and opening it.

Lack of power even when you change it to sports.

Very good on safety and security features but lack of power/energy when driving to a high speed roads/freeways. Not too much fun to drive.

My 2nd Kona I am a fan!

I loved my 2021 Kona..It held a good amount of value traded in for the 2026. The 2026 is a lot more roomy. but the trim packages are all over now i had a SEL + had nice wheels and a sunroof. New Sport feels like I gave up almost all of my premium features. The Wireless charging pad I used everyday in my 2021 worked great the 2026 wont charge the same phone in the case. For as much as these cost cheaping out on a small item is not really a win. Little things all over noticed are going backwards on trim. Radio is a huge let down sound was amazing now it is just ok.

No spare tire or jack

The Kona is nice, but the dumbest thing you people did, was to exclude the spare tire and jack, what the hell were you thinking.i go on occasional road trips and I sure as hell don’t want to sit on the side of the road, when I’m capable of changing a tire. The worst part is that you don’t even offer it after sale. My last Hyundai !!!

Kona Hatchback

I like everything about this vehicle except the hatchback which is manual. I had an Elantra before & even that had a level inside to pop the trunk

Satisfied customer overall.

Kona has been a joy to own. It's stylist, comfortable, and technology is excellent. The driver seat is not comfortable without pillow and back support. The lumbar feature does not work well.
